Going back to the hospital...
Daddy, Jack, and I headed to DeWitt hospital around 9:30 am for lab work. Then around 1 pm we received a call from Dr. Walton (who, oddly enough was Zach's pediatrician back in the day) saying that we need to head to Genesis East for further treatment so the levels did not get out of control. We were admitted to the hospital for jaundice. They checked Jack out, and he now weighs 7 lbs 1 oz. His bilirubin level this morning was a 19. Dr. Walton said that when the bilirubin level hits a 20 doctors start to panic, so we were admitted to the hospital. We were admitted at 3:30 and by 10:00 his level was down to a 14. They said that we would more than likely get to go home in the morning. Yea! I can not wait for Jackson to get better! Above are some pictures of our little man under the double-banked lights.
